The British Prince William (38) has commented on the health of his grandfather, Prince Philip.

"He's okay, he's under surveillance," said the second in line to the British throne about the 99-year-old man of Queen Elizabeth II (94) to journalists and winked.

William was visiting a vaccination center in Norfolk.

Philip had been rushed to the hospital less than a week ago - a purely precautionary measure, according to the palace in London.

What the Duke of Edinburgh suffered from remained a private matter.

However, the stay should not be related to Corona.

The Queen and her husband both received their first corona vaccination in January.

At the weekend, Prince Charles (72) visited his father in the hospital.

The heir to the throne had traveled a long way from his country estate near Bristol.

The two had reportedly not seen each other for several months.
